Looked for info on bleeding vent on here, but everything I saw was on possible prolapse. Our hen is not sexually mature yet, only 3 months, so that makes a bleeding vent even more peculiar. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!!
1) What type of bird , age and weight. Barred Rock, 3 months, not sure of weight but healthy size
2) What is the behavior, exactly. Bright red blood from her vent, the area feels hard
3) How long has the bird been exhibiting symptoms? Just noticed today
4) Are other birds exhibiting the same symptoms? No
5) Is there any bleeding, injury, broken bones or other sign of trauma. No
6) What happened, if anything that you know of, that may have caused the situation. No idea.
7) What has the bird been eating and drinking, if at all. Feed, scratch, fruit and veggie scraps
8) How does the poop look? Normal? Bloody? Runny? etc. Not sure, our flock free-ranges, but we have noticed some runny, watery poop from somebody
9) What has been the treatment you have administered so far? None
10 ) What is your intent as far as treatment? For example, do you want to treat completely yourself, or do you need help in stabilizing the bird til you can get to a vet? Intend to treat ourselves, if possible
11) If you have a picture of the wound or condition, please post it. It may help. Will try to get one.
